shadows

Verse 1

I wear my silence like a diamond ring

A pretty little lie underneath everything

Everybody thinks I've got it figured out

But there's a thousand things I never talk about

Verse 2

I keep the lights on when I'm feeling low

I tell myself there's nowhere else to go

And every time I think I'm getting close

I lose the words I needed most

Pre-Chorus

Can somebody see me?

Can somebody stay?

I'm tired of pretending

That I'm okay

Chorus

I'm dancing with the shadows tonight

Looking for a little piece of light

I've been holding on to yesterday

While all my dreams are fading away

Oh, I want somebody to know

The parts of me I never show

If heaven's just a little out of reach

Why does it feel so close to me?

Verse 3

I find a little magic in the rain

In quiet streets and windows on the train

A thousand little moments passing by

That somehow make me feel alive

Verse 4

And maybe I don't need a perfect life

Maybe I just need a softer night

A place where I can finally breathe

And someone who believes in me

Pre-Chorus

Can somebody hear me?

Can somebody stay?

I'm done with pretending

I'm never afraid

Chorus

I'm dancing with the shadows tonight

Looking for a little piece of light

I've been holding on to yesterday

While all my dreams are fading away

Oh, I want somebody to know

The parts of me I never show

If heaven's just a little out of reach

Why does it feel so close to me?

Bridge

Maybe I'm not lost

Maybe I'm just tired

Maybe there's a sunrise

Waiting on the other side

And if I fall into the silence

Let the stars remind me why

There's still a little beauty

In this beautiful, messy life

Chorus

I'm dancing with the shadows tonight

Still looking for a little piece of light

And even when the world feels far away

I know there's something left to save

Outro

Oh-oh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh-oh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

I'm still alive

Ooh-ooh-ooh

I'm still alive

Ooh-ooh-ooh

I'm still alive
